Escaping double quotes

[spiros]

I have this mod in subs.php which creates a Google search with a BBC code:

Code Select Expand

'content' => '<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=$1" target="_blank">$1</a>',

And I want it instead of a simple search, to output a phrase search (in double quotes, I.e. "search phrase").

I tried this, but did not output any search.

Code Select Expand

'content' => '<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=\"$1\"" target="_blank">$1</a>',

This is the context:

Code Select Expand

array(
'tag' => 'google',
'type' => 'unparsed_content',
'content' => '<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=$1" target="_blank">$1</a>',
'validate' => create_function('&$tag, &$data, $disabled', '$data = strtr($data, array(\'<br />\' => \'\'));'),
'disallow_children' => array('email', 'ftp', 'url', 'iurl'),
'disabled_content' => '<span style="color: red;">Google Search: $1</span>',
),
array(
'tag' => 'google',
'type' => 'unparsed_equals',
'before' => '<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=$1" target="_blank">',
'after' => '</a>',
'disallow_children' => array('email', 'ftp', 'url', 'iurl'),
'disabled_before' => '<span style="color: red;">',
'disabled_after' => ' ($1)</span>',
),

You need to urlencode the content that is being searched http://php.net/manual/en/function.urlencode.php

Thanks, not sure how to apply it to that code.

Not sure without testing and all but - should be just doing urlencode($1)

Thanks, tried this but resulted in searching backslash, am I escaping correctly here?
